United-Kingdom Maybe I should give them a chance

Thanks for your comments.

My car is a 07 reg R56 cooper. I tried 35PSI all round today which was an improvement, slightly less tire roll in the corners. I think I am starting to get used the new handling charactoristics and I deffinatly appriciate the smoother ride.

That mid corner bounce you get on bumpy roads is much improved and grip is amazing a long as you keep it smooth.

All that said if you need a quick change of direction, for instance if there is a car coming in the other direction on a narrow B road you get a delay in turn in and then a wobble at the back – just the tires flexing I think.

I will try 40PSI the same as frashed - there is hope yet.
